Sorry for sending you this message directly, but I must have a solution
the latest tomorrow.
I changed this chmod on smbmount
but then I get the message
$ mount /mnt/pcleen
libsmb based programs must *NOT* be setuid root.
22339: Connection to 192.1.1.1 failed
SMB connection failed
You need also to know that the password for Linux and MsServer is
different, because of Lx security.
I installed linneighborhood.
But I do not understand what is happening, in other words, nothing is.
I see the lx Server and his mounts
Que pasa?
